To use the PropellerBreeze and PropellerControl, you need to connect the plug to the GHL plug bar AND setup control of the PropellerControl via the 1-10v interface, only the combination of both gives the expected result (fans turning on at the expected time :) ).

With the 1-10v interface to control the PropellerControl, why not provide a new "Function Parameter" of Cooling based on the Function of Temperature.
Similar to how the switch channels works.

This way, I don't have to hog a plug bar socket, when the 1-10v interface can control the fans entirely.
It's a complete waste of a plug bar socket, seeing as I'm already programatically controlling the fan via the controller.

To be absolutely clear, I'm suggesting a new function parameter called "cooling" be added to the 1-10v interface for the function Temperature.
This would only output any voltage if the temperature required cooling (as per the plug bar socket logic).

This is already possible. Therefor, check the programming guide point 5.15 and 8.4: https://www.aquariumcomputer.com/downloads/profilux-4-programming-guide-v7-02/

You have to assign the temperature sensor as function to the 1-10V interface and set the '1-10V is max. at deviation' setting at the temp. sensor settings.
